I've been shocked more times than I can remember over my career (maybe that explains a lot). I'd gladly take a 120 volt hit from a wall receptacle over a tazer shot.
I can't say I think it was an appropriate response. Four grown adult men and a taser is the best solution? I don't think so.

False dilemma. Are you telling me that's the only other option?You'd rather have 4 grown men dog pile on her while she has a knife in her hand?

Do you really need someone to tell you what all the options are for dealing with an 8-year-old girl?What options do you think were available? Not arguing, just would like your thoughts.
I've not seen anything written there that wasn't factual.
Care to give an example?

Are you a parent?
Presentation my friend Presentation.
I wouldn't care if the tasing were a last resort option. Pretty sure it wasn't.Really easy to find better solutions when you weren't there.
Anything but the taser and the firearm, for starters.I dont need someone else to tell me how to deal with an 8 year old girl, however I would like to hear what options you think the officers had available to them.
I am a parent, but shes only 4 weeks old. Not 8 years.
